A Tennessee man was arrested for assault and strangulation late Thursday night following an investigation on West Second Street.
The 26-year old female victim told Hopkinsville police that her boyfriend, 28-year old Maurice Denton of Memphis, pinned her down on the bed and placed his arms around her neck during an argument at a home on West Second.
He also allegedly shoved her on her face, causing a previous injury to reopen.
Denton was arrested and charged with fourth-degree assault and first-degree strangulation.
